Talking Angel Eyes foglights Installed

Well since some people found the unofficial Angel eyes install thread I have made this Official Angel Eyes install thread for the rest of the people who haven't found it yet.

I installed the Optilux Angel Eyes for Hella that cost $60. They're mounting kit that came with it was two self threading screws that mounts the foglights onto the bumper. I had to make an adapter bracket to make it fit to the OEM foglight opening which is oval shaped. The Angel Eyes foglights will fit into the oval opening but there will be gaps to the side of the fogs. If you haven't played will the OEM foglights the screw that mounts it to the bumper is on the top side of the foglight assembly. you can probably reach the mounting screw with a 1/4 inch ratchet and universal joint using a 10MM socket. Or you can take the whole bumper off of the car by pulling the quick release fastners on top and on the bottom of the bumper. there are also six screws that hold the bumper to the chasis. one is located near the headlight assembly and two by the wheel well on the left and right side of the car.

Once you have taken all those fasteners off you can just pry off the bumper from the snap in retaining clips.

The adapter bracket that i made was just a 1X4 inch piece of metal with two matching holes to the Angel Eyes foglights bracket and i just used some nuts and bolts that i had lying around the garage.



the install took about 4-5 hours due to the fact i had to make brackets for the angel eyes fogs and for my Ichibahn gas pedal.






Check out the pics on my hompage if the pics don't show up.

I know you said you had an issue with the fog light holes being oval and the angel fogs are round. Can you put up a close up pic so we can see the fit.

the foglights have an adjustable bracket that i can play around to make it more flush and get rid of that side gap.

This weekend im going to fix the aim of the fogs. right now they are pointing skyward.

So, it's the bracket which prevents the housing
from recessing all the way and not the fogs themselves?

it may be a little bit of both the bracket and the oval shape of the opening that makes it stick out. I'll find out for sure this coming weekend when i adjust the foglight aim.
